Running an enterprise depends on two magic weapons, one is capital and the other is talent, which is the knowledge of almost all enterprises. Weighing the weight of the two, the talent problem is the first.

The value of talents cannot be overstated. In the well-known Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei said: "Wolong Feng Chu won the first place and won the world." It can be seen how important talent is to the prosperity of a country. Governing enterprises is not as complicated as governing the country, but the same is true, and talents are rare.

But we are often confused. Since Wolong Feng Chu, the first and second talent in the world, can win the world, why did Shu Han, who has both, fail? Maybe Wolong Feng Chu waves get a hollow reputation?

History has long been a public opinion. Although Zhuge Liang has the talent of governing the country and keeping the country safe, he has the reputation of wisdom incarnate, a high degree of judgment that "three points in the world know his youth" and a high degree of trust in Liu Huangshu Baidicheng. Committed to the civil and military affairs of the country, all this is predetermined, but before he can conquer, his death is still inevitable. The consequence of doing one's best is that "there is no general in Shu, and Liao Hua is the pioneer". Until later, the late ruler A Dou was captured by the military forces of the Western Jin Dynasty. He was so happy that he became a Jiang Wei who could hardly clap his hands, revived the Han Dynasty and finally became a beautiful dream. "Since then, heroes have been crying on their coats", which makes the younger generation lament.

The big joke played by history on Zhuge Liang proves that Zhuge Liang's personal tragedy doomed the tragedy of Shu Han. This is by no means a personal disrespect for Zhuge Liang. On the contrary, it is precisely because too many people regard Zhuge Liang as a god that the national security depends on a person's health. The tragedy of Shu is that Zhuge Liang "fought alone".

There are many places to laugh at the defeat of Cao Wei, but one thing must not be forgotten, that is, the talent mechanism in Wei and Jin Dynasties laid the foundation for victory. Even Huang Kou's children know that Cao Ying "has many counsellors, and the war is like a cloud". On the other hand, in Shu Han, Zhuge was the only civil servant and military commander who could count. There were also several military commanders, that is, the army of the Five Tigers, who blocked the Western Expedition in the east and killed every battle. Once Zhang Guan dies, Huang Ma will be old, and the country is bound to be the way to national subjugation, that's all.

Zhuge Liang is a child prodigy, which is recognized as common sense, but his biggest mistake is that he never let go of his power until his death, and he does everything himself and doesn't care about anyone. Of course, it is impossible to cultivate talents with their own value, and his biggest problem is that once his opponent has distrust, even without any evidence, he will never let go of punishing him until his death. Wei Yan's rebellion is basically a masterpiece concocted by Zhuge Liang.

Compared with Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang is a talented person, but he is definitely not a good leader. Although Cao Cao has a bad reputation, he knows how to authorize and motivate his subordinates, and he also has literary talent and skills, without losing too much of Kong Ming. These are all places where Zhuge Liang can compete with Cao Cao in addition to his own talents. From this perspective, Zhuge Liang's failure is not difficult to understand.
